LOVE this store and visit every time I am in Sonoma. They carry ONLY local items from the area - from artwork and jewelry to food stuff. Great place to get souvenirs or just try some local items from this great part of California. Staff is also very helpful and the prices vary from vendor to vendor but most are pretty reasonable for unique local items. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE the vibe in the store! I personally think that shopping online for big corporations is overrated and I wanted to find more local businesses this year for Christmas and my coworker recommended this place. I found some mini soap bars for my friends as stocking stuffers and some interesting jam flavors for when I do my charcuterie. I spent about $38 which for local stuff is a pretty good deal! And the 2 ladies at the registers were absolute ANGELS and we were chit chatting about hairstyles and they were really sweet recommending places in the area to visit. DEFINITELY COMING BACK! I love shopping locally! read more

The nice lady was very welcoming and helpful. I spilled loose tea and offered to sweep it, but she cleaned up my mess without the guilt trip. We bought a few unique items here. We love supporting local artists. read more

When visiting family in Santa Rosa last week we were treated to gift boxes of local gourmet goodies and self care items from Made Local Marketplace. Fabulous selection of goods from Sonoma County that we'll be happily enjoying. Even better, we had one free afternoon and our niece took us to visit the "Mother House" - the source of all the wonderful potions, lotions, and tasty treats. So much fun to wander thorough the two rooms filled with displays full of a myriad of creativity. The shop features art pieces in various media, wearable art, wall art, foodie creations, garden art, and much more. It's a treat for the eyes, with varied pieces extending upward toward the high ceilings, and also at eye level. Some of the artisans bring vivid color and whimsy to life. Others offer scents in soaps, candles, oils, and lotions. I treated myself to a kitchen towel with the Santa Rosa Round Barn logo - sadly lost to a major wildfire several years ago. It's still a beloved symbol of the history of the city. Planning to stitch it into a throw pillow cover. There's lots of inspiration in this marketplace, that's for sure. Looking forward to sampling the contents of the boxes our family curated for us, knowing the charming shop from where they came as an added bonus. read more

This is one of my favorite gift shops! They have a wide variety of merchandise -- jewelry, food, ceramics, wall art, soaps, lotions, and much more. Plus they have classes! I took a fun and relaxing watercolor class. This store is my go-to at Christmas time for unique gifts that are not made in China. And I have brought out-of-town visitors here to buy local products to take back home with them. Easy, one stop shopping. read more

This cute shop is in downtown Santa Rosa and I love that they support local artists. It has a variety of items so there is something for everyone. It also feels great that you are supporting the local community. This place is a great place to grab a gift for someone or to get a house warming gift. They have artwork, candles, jewelry, cooking spices, gifts for the home, essential oils, beauty products, clothing, etc. They really have a great selection of different items and even gift baskets that you can purchase. There is plenty of amazing items if you wanted to treat yourself as well. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be coming back here again! read more

Great place to get gifts! Staff very professional and helpful. Wish I had a store like this in my home town!

I have visited Made Local Marketplace several times. Generally, I have had a positive experience. This time however, I was not greeted; no one said hello; offered to help; or even glanced my way. When I left I felt that I was not at all welcome. I believe in supporting local businesses, but I also realize that there is almost no training in retail help these days. I will say that ignoring potential customers is not helpful to either the shop; the customer, or those people trying to sell their goods. I would hope that they can do better. read more

Got wool ball cat toys , cute art on postcards and lots of fun browsing. A little something for everyone as it covers paper art, textiles , pottery and more. Worth a stop read more

A lot of cute things in this local store that would make great gifts! A bit over priced and there was honestly so much going on in the store it was kind of overwhelming. I appreciated knowing that most things were made local and that these were business men and women also trying to make a living. Something that stood out to me was that the woman at the counter was microwaving her lunch, I'm assuming, which smelt like an enchilada TV dinner and wafted through the entire store. Likely would have purchased things had I not had to leave at the overwhelming smell. Definitely not a deal breaker - we all need to eat!! But it was a little difficult to smell the candles and skin products I was interested in possibly getting. read more

Super cute little shop in downtown Santa Rosa. All kinds of locally crafted items and artwork. The girl behind the counter was very nice and friendly. I picked up a few different things on my visit the other day. I got a holder for scissors (scissors included) made from a potholder! Too cute and very creative. I got a hand sewn wallet/card holder made of bright colored fabric. It has a snap closure, too. I got some little magnets "Sonoma Strong". My heart goes out to all the residents around SR and nearby communities after those devastating fires. So much community spirit here in SR! I also got a great assortment of Mrs Grossman's stickers. (Made nearby in Petaluma. Very cool). So much talent throughout this store...stop in and take some time to look in every little corner! read more

Co-op artisan gallery. Stylistically the opposite of Corrick's. Get ready to see the Sonoma county handicraft art scene. Lots'a variety of gifts, artwork, and such. The Criminal baking company has a small booth when you walk in the door. They have seriously yummy cookies. So come on in, get your inner hippie on. If you're a far flung visitor seeing Santa Rosa for the first time this place will give you a glimpse into our counter-culture esthetic & mentality. If you are a long time local you know this place as "this is where I get my groovy mom a gift for her birthday". Enjoy! read more

Great gift shop (or shopping for yourself of course) jewelry, art, food, baby, garden.... nice staff and easy location right downtown. Your gift will be one of a kind and you'll feel great supporting local artisans! read more

A great variety of locally made art and crafts. Everything from raku ceramics to monster pillows to felted birds to lotions to tatoo style paintings; and my personal favorites, fused glass and jewelry. Great prices, nice people. Feel the jah! read more

Nice little shop full of items, as the name says, made locally. I bought a few souvenirs from the area here, which are nicer than you would get in a local souvenir store. If I could have fit more in my suitcase I would have bought more. Definitely worth a stop in. read more

Had not been here since they first opened in the small space on 5th Street. This location is nice, bright and airy and there is really something for everyone. Love the variety and different artist offerings. The salesperson working was very helpful and friendly. read more

This lovely boutique cooperative has been my go to for any type of special gift, whether large or small. I like that the items are hand made locally. I recently purchased some aromatherapy air freshener and art, both very nice quality. I expect to pay a bit more for an item that's unique and not mass manufactured. A few months back I picked up a beautiful small glass bowl that I gifted to my sister who used it for her rings and earrings. This is a nice addition to the neighborhood! read more

What a wonderful store! Items from over 70 local artists and the staff is all volunteer. This is a co-op where you can find a huge variety of locally made handmade craft items and all proceeds go back to the artists themselves. There are many different price points and a good variety to choose from. It's like a year-round craft fair open 7 days a week. Within walking distance of many nice restaurants, this is a great place to walk off lunch and browse for that something special. read more

Super cute store with so many different options. Love that it is all locally made. If I am back in the area I will get some goodies.

This place has been posting my private number to a local newspaper to advertise their events. It is very unprofessional, and now I have a bunch of perverts calling me in the middle of dinner. I called them three times, the first time some lady hung up on me, she didn't care that my life was being upset. The second time she just let it go to voice mail, the third time no answer. I sent an email to the newspaper and to the coop, and have gotten no response. It is really rude. These people need to be shut down. read more

I love the idea of promoting local artists, businesses, restaurants, organizations, etc. The ShareExchange has a variety of local crafts, as well as information on local events and movements. Also, they have seeds for local community gardens and school gardens. The volunteers there are always welcoming and informative. It's fun sometime to just go and look around at all the local talent. However, I always end up buying something!! Some of the items, in my opinion, are way too expensive...but not everything! Just last week, I bought a bicyclist-gal decal for $5 and an awesome locally made card for $3. I love their jewelry and the local soaps! I also got some locally made bar shampoo that is gentle and doesn't strip your hair of natural oils! It is rosemary and smells oh-so-good! ($4) read more

Support local =) I love the philosophy behind stores that feature locally made crafts but I do not always love their products. Often, the items are overpriced and deserving to be featured on regretsy. I loved this place as it's well-curated. The items are practical, attractive, or simply well-made. The selection is eclectic and includes jewelry, clothes, pinup girl handkerchiefs, greeting cards, clocks, pottery, skin care products, and fresh produce. My friend even purchased a reusable sanitary napkin here. No, I did not know that such a product existed. My haul: Greeting card: $4 Earrings: $18 Necklace (on sale): $7 Watermelon: $3 No regrets. Enjoy. read more

This shop is tucked into the row of businesses on 4th street downtown, between County Bench and Stout Bros. We wandered in by accident while finding a path from the 5th street parking lot to the square. What a delightful surprise! The store is dedicated to items made in Sonoma County - and it's a wide variety. Art, paper goods, clothing, accessories, jewelry, pet products, beauty products, cooking implements, a coffee cart with pastries from Criminal, and probably more that I'm forgetting about! The staff was very welcoming and friendly, and it was a lot of fun exploring the store. Plus, it's always a good feeling to purchase items made in my own local community. read more

Another bonus of the reunited Santa Rosa Square! We stumbled upon these charming displays of delightful products made by local artisans. Each section has a photo and description of its producer. From children's clothing, to organic skin care, to pet treats, to spice mixes, the variety has to be seen to be believed. What a perfect place to find gifts for everyone, including myself! read more

Popped in here just yesterday to grab a few gifts for my clients. Great selection of local products from tea and coffee, to honey, soaps and ceramics. Super friendly service and an offer to wrap my items as they had assumed correctly I was putting together gift bags. I fell the value is good. For $30 per person I walked with coffee, tea, soap and chocolates for each. I highly recommend this place for those looking for some great local products. I found it very cool how they put pictures of each person in the store by their products, gives it a real personal touch! read more

What a gem! They have a wide variety of things from tea to soaps and jewelry, art of every type, all locally made. This is the store to find that perfect unique gift or something cool for yourself. I'm so happy I found this place. :) read more

This place is awesome. First of all it's all locally made products and they are helping many local business people get into business or expand their business. On top of that, the merchandise is just really cool. It's an especially great place for special gifts and cards. A lot o the businesses have really cool back stories, like Evan's Fun Games which is a local board game maker who has Asperger Syndrome, or Plum Blossom Farm which sells a variety of cool products made from sheep wool and their sheep are all humanely raised and retire on the farm when they are no longer productive (many of the sheep are rescues). Great food items too! read more

This business has a good vibe the people there are optimistic. The prices and quality vary greatly as you might expect, but nothing was overpriced to the point of being insulting. Many items are very reasonably priced and hand woven scarves, jewelry, food items, fine art, and hand tooled leather of good quality are to be had. Near municipal parking, other shopping and dinning, the Made Local Marketplace is a good idea. Santa Rosa needed a place like this. read more

Checked out this store walking down the street after lunch, and glad that I spent the time to go through all of their varied items. It's cool that it's all local and most of it seems handmade. They had a lot of unique items that I had to buy just to try it, and maybe I'll come back when I'm in town again to pick up some more. The only thing I was disappointed by were the prices of some items. I really wanted to get this ring, but it was too steep for my budget. We picked up some items from the bakery section and the brown butter brownie and oatmeal thing were both really good, and the people were nice! read more

The share exchange is exactly what every town needs to stay together and positive. they are the only local ecomy center in northern california promoting Sustainable Living,Community Resource Development ,Community Networks & Sharing,Interpersonal Skills,and taking steps to help Green Businesses. they are the home to the made local marketplace where over 250 local handmade artist can consign their one of a kind wares and fun gifts. I personally found an artisan herbal backrub that helps my chronic back pain sooo well i carry it with me everywhere. You can find the best stuff here from felt monsters/stuffed animals to jewelry and even handmade and drawn coloring books! I personally get all my unique gifts here and always find something new each time!keep up the good work share exchange! read more

I love Kelley Rajala and Pam Dale and think this is the nicest store in the world!
